Two young witches, Bracken and Nettle, venture outside their mountain valley and find a world that’s always been hidden from them—our world. An unabashed fantasy for magic-loving children ages 7-10.
Selected… Bank Street Best Children’s Books, 2015!
“In this well-crafted, light fantasy, Losure shows the same sure touch as in her nonfiction book The Fairy Ring (Candlewick, 2012)…. The story’s pace is just right for younger readers…. The resolution is satisfying, even though it is tinged with sadness. With interesting characters and a skillful blend of realistic and fantasy elements, this short novel with its breath of childhood innocence ends with just a hint that this may not be the last of Bracken and Nettle’s adventures.”
